For new installations it is recommended to follow the following guidelines: I Suction line from the operatories to be a minimum of 1-1/2” diameter. and must be sloped (1/4” minimum for every 10’) toward the separation tank. The suction line should not have any sharp right angle bends. I The suction line should be connected to the CASTM separation tank with a short run of 1-1/2” diameter. flexible tubing. I The STSTM system can replace water ring pumps with smaller diameter piping in existing installations. I The drain on the base of the separation tank must be connected to an open floor drain capable of handling 10 gallons in 30 seconds. Drain pipe size 1-1/2” schedule 40. I The drain line should be a short run with a minimum slope of ¼” for every 10’ toward the drain (avoid any sharp right angle bends). I The vent line should be 2” diameter pipe for a single STSTM and 3” diameter. pipe for a dual system. The vent should be sloped 1/4” per 10’ towards the pump. Vent line must be capable of handling vapors and liquids. I The outside vent must be protected from rain and animals. I A flexible air exhaust hose is provided to connect to the 2” diameter vent pipe and heat exchanger. Hose clamps are provided to secure hose to heat exchanger and pipe. I Wash-out port uses a 3/4” garden hose connection, affixed to the CASTM. I Refer to pages 9 through 11 for mounting and securing instructions. Any time the power to the STSTM is turned OFF the CASTM tank will automatically drain. OPERATING INFORMATION I I I I I The STSTM may be turned “ON/OFF” from a single, convenient location within the dental office using a Remote Control Panel. Remote wiring must be done by a licensed electrician in accordance with local codes. The vacuum level is factory preset at 10 in Hg (inches of mercury). This is the reading on the gauge when all HVE’s and SE’s are CLOSED. If this setting needs to be adjusted contact your dealer to readjust the setting. The unit is capable of running continuously. To conserve electricity, the system may be turned off when not in use. The CASTM separation tank has been designed to collect the fluids evacuated during a normal operating day. If an excessive amount of fluids are collected in the CASTM, the protective mechanism in the CASTM will interrupt the vacuum flow in order for the tank to automatically drain. This process takes approximately 30 seconds. To restore the vacuum to full operation turn OFF the power to the STSTM for a minimum of 10 seconds and then turn back ON. Turn the power OFF at the end of the day. This will drain collected liquids in the CASTM separation tank. 6 STS SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS STS-3/STS-6 Configuration Dimensions. Figure 2 shows the space requirements for STS-3 and STS-6 model configuration installations. Please note that all CAS heights can be increased by 4 inches and decreased by 6 inches using the adjusting holes in the 4-rail support assembly. Always bolt or secure installation to the floor or wall when stacking the CAS onto dual STS pumps. 4 GALLON CAS, P/N 54800 (Used for STS-3 and STS-6) STS-3, P/N 54600 STS-3 with 4 GALLON CAS, P/N 54900 2 STS-3 Pumps Stacked Together Used in STS-6 Configurations STS-6 and 1 CAS 4 GALLON CAS, P/N 54910 8 GALLON CAS, P/N 54920 Figure 2.

Electrical Box Schematic for STS-3and STS-6 Models ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 13 MAINTENANCE Preventive Maintenance Whenever a service technician fulfills a repair call at the customer site routine checks should also be performed to detect general overall wear, and replacement of parts should be made if necessary before a failure causes a prolonged shut-down. This preventive maintenance program will aid in dependable equipment operation and help reduce breakdown. Initial Maintenance The CASTM uses patented technology to provide cyclonic action cleaning within the tank. After installation, clean the vacuum lines with Clean StreamTM Cleaner. This is especially necessary when a new system is being installed into existing dental system piping. Using Clean StreamTM Cleaner helps the STSTM system to remove any built up deposits in the piping system. Daily Maintenance Recommendation Further, to maintain the cleanliness of the CASTM, including all the vacuum lines and tubing in the dental system, Air Techniques recommends that the dental office personnel be instructed to use Clean StreamTM Cleaner daily as part of the overall preventive maintenance program. Yearly Maintenance Although the CASTM uses patented technology to provide cyclonic action cleaning within the tank during operation of the STSTM system, the tank does need to be inspected and cleaned yearly to insure proper operation. Procedures to inspect and clean the new and old style CASTM tanks are provides by the following pages. Perform the procedures corresponding to the to installed tank style to remove any solids trapped in the tank. Maintenance-Free STS Pumps All STS pumps are designed for maintenance-free operation. The pump features a powerful permanent split capacitor motor, with a highly reliable contactor and powerful transformer. The motor is completely water and oil-free and provides a dependable operation requiring no scheduled maintenance. 14 MAINTENANCE Yearly Tank Maintenance Procedure. Refer to Figure 11 and perform the procedures to remove any solids trapped in the tank. 1. Turn OFF the power to the STSTM. 2. Remove the vacuum gauge and bushing assembly. 3. Attach the male garden hose adapter to the wash-out port in the CASTM (Be sure to include washers). 4. Attach the the water supply to the garden hose adapter (use female garden hose adapter if required). 5. Run water through the CASTM for approximately 5 minutes. 6. Remove the male garden hose adapter from the CASTM and re-install the gauge and bushing assembly using teflon tape.

Stainless CAS Washout Port Detail 15 MAINTENANCE Over or under adjustment of the Vacuum Relief Valve can degrade overall system operation. Adjustments should only be made to keep the suction level at the factory-set 10 InHg level, which is adequate to provide optimum operation. Vacuum Relief Valve Adjustment The STSTM system vacuum level is factory set at 10 InHg (inches of Mercury) as shown by the Vacuum Gauge. This suction level is more than adequate to provide a properly sized system service for a multiple-user dental facility. Whenever the suction level varies above or below the factory set point, adjustments can be made as necessary via the Vacuum Relief Valve. Refer to Figure 12 and adjust the system suction level by performing the following: 1. Access Vacuum Relief Valve by removing Vacuum Relief Valve Cap from the Vacuum Connection Assembly. 2. Hold Adjusting Nut with a 7/16-inch open-end wrench. 3. Using a flat screwdriver, adjust suction level as follows: a. Increase suction by turning adjusting screw clockwise in no more than 1/4 increments. b. Decrease suction by turning adjusting screw counterclockwise in no more than 1/4 increments. Vacuum Relief Valve Cleaning A dirty or clogged Vacuum Relief Valve degrades the STSTM system suction level. Clean the Vacuum Relief Valve by removing Vacuum Relief Valve Cap and carefully pulling the valve from the Vacuum Connection Assembly. Blow out accumulated solid deposits using clean low pressure compressed air.
